Services

Short-Term Work Force Training provides short-term, industry specific training closely related to the regular postsecondary programs for individuals already in the workforce and for dislocated and displaced workers.  Training is also specifically customized to provide a ready workforce for new and expanding companies.  

Single Parents and Displaced Homemakers programs provide adult single parents and displaced homemakers with services through a network of counseling centers called Centers for New Directions.   These services help clients move from dependence to independence and include: personal, career and educational counseling; assessment and testing; and preparation for employment and training.

Department of Correction professional-technical education courses provide for certificate level preparation in specific occupational areas that can lead to successful employment opportunities upon release. These courses are offered at the Idaho State Correctional Institution, Pocatello Women’s Correctional Center, North Idaho Correctional Institution, Idaho Correctional Institution at Orofino, Idaho Maximum Security Institution, and Southern Idaho Correctional Institution.   

Academic Skills Development provides academic skills assessment and remediation to enable unprepared and under-prepared adults at the technical colleges to succeed in professional-technical education programs and in the workplace.
